Children of Color to be Majority of US Youth in 2020

[Bear Stearns]

Ok. Why's it matter?

Because "people of color" have certain political inclinations that some people will stand to benefit from there being more of them in the country, and other people are put in danger.

This is true. The biggest proponents of more illegal immigration are large corporations. Gee, I wonder why?

That's quite a claim.

Why pay your workers more if you can just call ICE on them when they get uppity.

[Bear Stearns]

That's quite a claim.

It is true. It's the agricultural, food & beverage, and restaurant industries, which have powerful lobbies.

Who are these people who stand to benefit from this?

Not at all, just look how they squeal when you take their slave labor away. Perhaps we can have another lesson from San Lumen as to why we have to keep a certain class of people as virtual slaves so his fruit prices stay affordable in New York.

I don't recall ever saying that.

Given the fact these figures are on predicted US - a colonial country - demographics, I honestly couldn’t care less. Neither whites nor blacks are native to the country and Amerindians are too small of a demographic to be in any more threat of extinction than they already are.

Honestly if you’re excited/happy about this then I think you have a problem with white people. So congrats! You’re racist.
If you’re angry or upset about this then you’re most likely racist.

That’s all there is to it.

[Crylante]

Good for the kids, I guess?

Hopefully being marginally more diverse will contribute somewhat to a decrease in racism across the pond, but I'm sceptical that that will be the case.

Who are these people who stand to benefit from this?

Financial institutions, big agricultural companies, private prisons, and tech companies.

Also Democrats.

A few dozen posts should suffice for you to know what's in that person's head and their heart.
You should therefore be able to guess the race of any NSG poster with a high degree of accuracy.
I volunteer. Guess my race (or if you read the one post where I talked about it, pick someone else)

I'm talking about in person. I know nothing about you.

Why not? You write intelligibly, it follows that you can read well.
So why can't you infer anything at all about my head and heart?

There's something else you need isn't there. You're incapable of "knowing about me" or following from that, judging the contents of my head and heart until … correct me if I'm wrong … you know my race.

How are "People of Color" being defined? Since I am sure theres a lot of talk about people of hispanic ancestry, things are a bit more complicated than that.

[Bear Stearns]

Still? Whites and blacks have been in North America for over 400 years at this point. I think it's bit silly to say that this isn't our homeland too.

The article seems to indicate we're talking about non-Hispanic whites.

That would be logical

So would that include Espomolos and Castizos? ^^

Because I can't make inferences from an online post? Find me a person who can and I'll be impressed. How would your NS posts give me any inclination as to what your character is like?

Your race would give me a more accurate prediction, especially if I also knew your nationality. Then I could make assumptions about your political views, perhaps your social class, and your religion. From there, I can make a more accurate prediction. It wouldn't be a perfect prediction, but it'd be closer to reality than just going off of your NS posts. Race is only one part of a person's profile, but it is important enough that psychologists, detectives, and demographers all include it in their analyses, because it can predict a lot about a person.

I'm sorry you got dragged into that. I was just going to ignore TEM's avuncular attempt to reply on behalf of Bear Stearns. It didn't back the claim, only repeat it with hyperbole.

Democrats is a no brainer.

According to new research by demographers this year will mark the first time children of color will outnumber whites in the US and in the coming years and decades it will only grow. Whites are predicted to be a minority around 2035. There are already several states where whites are minority, Nevada and Hawaii being two of them.

I think this Is where a lot of the bluster and bigotry in recent years stems from. You see it in the massive refugee reduction to attempts to roll back voting rights and make it harder to vote. Some are afraid of this demographic change. There is no reason to be. Everyone is equal and skin color makes no difference.

When it comes to politics if you can’t win because your base is shrinking try reaching out to those communities.

This isn’t just a thing in the USA. Canada is predicted to be majority non white soon after the the US.

Your thoughts NSG?

Zoo security amirite?

It's why non-Hispanic white is such a dumb term. Anglo-American works a lot better, and is a closer analogue to Latin American.

SL repeatedly says that we can't deport illegal immigrants because they're so "crucial" to our economy. Unlike him, I'm not a lobbyist for Chiquita fruits and therefore I don't give a fuck about how much the profit margins of agricultural executives decline when we take away their slave labor.

He is literally defending this.
